These works articulate the problematics linked to architecture and public space and questions of sociology psychology and gender politics. The conceptual investigation led by the artist essentially questions the way in which identity especially sexual identity is constructed or is on the contrary constrained by society and its physical spaces. The artist uses the appropriationist strategy of the 1980s as it permits past works to be revisited in order to reveal different significations. Thus the artist reconfigures a history no longer fixed in time and space but on the contrary perfectly open illuminating and transforming the present. . 2006. 3905701820 . JRP|Ringier paperback

2007rif. 89904JRPRingier. New. Paperback. FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- Text in French and English. 160 pp. ; 122 illus. -- with a bonus offer--; Lothar Hempel's elaborate installations of freestanding architectural features and full-sized figures have as much in common with theatrical productions as with most artworks. His scenes confront the viewer with open-ended dramas and ideological dilemmas; his paintings and puppet-like characters exist as potential casts for these scenarios. Like Brecht or Beckett Hempel born in Cologne in 1966 isn't looking to provoke emotional engagement so much as the viewer's critical reaction to the idea of narrative the ideology of storytelling. With a designer's elegance he combines aesthetics from the past and the present quoting Medieval tapestries and early Modernism in work infused with a sense of tragedy mythology and burlesque. The work gathered here has been shown in museums in both the U.S. and Europe and at New York galleries including Anton Kern 2006. This is Hempel's first major monograph. . 2007. 3905770474 .

Through the human adventure of the Brueghel dynasty progressing from obscure beginnings to recognition by the very greatest Florence de Voldère introduces us to the genius of these men who created the Flemish aesthetic identity. Voldère takes us through the Renaissance in Flanders in the form of a story in pictures. Through this approach based on a dynamic reading of the paintings this book shows the crucial role of art at one moment of civilization and opens up some decidedly novel perspectives for interpreting Flemish art. </body> . 2012. 8842218375 .
